Why Give?

Giving to Mission Montessori makes a difference.

Your support allows Mission Montessori to continue to provide an exceptional Montessori education for our students.

Community Investment

Your Community Investment supports the gap between what charter schools in Arizona are given from the state and what public schools are given. Here is what your gracious contribution allows for us to do:

(1) It supports the quality of the Educational Model by adding assistants in each classroom to reduce the student/teacher ratio and allow extended time for individualizes instruction; a (2) It supports Extra-Curricular activities that are vital for our Montessori whole-child educational model.

To maintain the excellence in our present educational model and to meet the continued state reductions, we are requesting a gift of $1500 per child. This can be paid in one lump sum or monthly payments over the school year.

Tax Credit

In Arizona you can allocate up to $200 as an individual tax payer or up to $400 for those filing a joint return. Instead of not being able to choose how your tax dollars are spent, you can make sure it goes directly to Mission Montessori Academy. The best part is that it is a dollar-for-dollar credit, so it literally costs you nothing. When you file your state taxes, if you owe $500 jointly (or $300 single), you would now only owe $100 after this dollar for dollar direct credit. This puts you in the drivers seat and can make a huge impact on the Academy’s extracurricular programs like music, art, technology, science, foreign languages and field trips. Anyone who support our extra-curricular activities and character-education programs can claim this credit on your taxes: parents, aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents, friends and business associates.
